That was unbearable!!! Who the fuck is this horrible, vile looking talentless mess? And what the fuck is going on with that stupid, superficial, gangster mentality? "Popping bottles in da club, that's what everybody does"? Well, fuck everybody! Girls, you don't have to dress in cheap aluminum foil and show your ass to make it… YOU NEED TALENT!!! And she lacks it profusely. She can't sing (obviously), she can't move either, her rhymes are worst than those of a 12 year old… It's all so wrong…

It's strange because part of me wants to be just be like "ewww, you are nasty girl" but then I'm like, ok, first of all she has guts, to get THAT naked and do all of that, in video form, for everyone to see, damn. Second, her voice is at least decent so she doesn't sound like a mess. Yeah, the video is kinda off in parts, sometimes it looks high budget, sometimes it looks way too cheap like when she's on the truck. And sure, I also don't like the braids, at all, they scream white chick trying way too hard to be different and "hard". But still, she totally sold the song to me. Why? Well she just looks like she doesn't care, she does what she does and she's fine with it, she's confident to the MAX so I can't knock her too much. Not a lot of people have the balls to do what she's doing. She's crazy lol. Good for her!

Music reached it's peak a long while back. The world should end before the integrity of sound is pissed against the wall. Not that it hasn't been dismantled by "musicians" already. I use the term "musicians" loosely.

Re: LE BAMBI LOU BOP SHE BOP –
My 86 year old Nana also has guts and confidence. Would you like to see her swing her saggy titays (like those of Miss Thing here) at you in a video? Of ourse not (unless you're into geriatricophilia of course). Guts and confidence does not an artist make. TALENT DOES!!! And she has none. Having a pen does not make you a writer - making a video does not make you a pop star.
P.S. Nowhere in her vid does it look "high budget". Nowadays, you can get a HD camera at Bestbuy, a free editing software on the net, and easily make something like this. My nephew did. He's in highschool.

Re: LE BAMBI LOU BOP SHE BOP – The reason why she is fine getting naked like that is because this girl IS a stripper. I dont know if she still currently works as a stripper but thats what she always was along with a "rapper". I will leave the rapping thing to those who know to be honest.
I just saw too much head and hair spinning and a repetitive chorus through all the song. Not really atracted to this type of music, is generic and boring. I liked her costumes tho.

Re: Veralynn – I don't think she's a terrible writer and her vocals aren't bad in my opinion. I'm a songwriter, so I know how hard and time consuming it is to actually get a beat done, record vocals, create a concept for a music video, and put it all together. Believe me, I have sat for countless hours with people with zero talent, hearing them sing one terrible take after another so I know what zero talent sounds like very well. This chick has timing, again her voice doesn't sound bad and it's not irritating (at least not to me), and she has a personality. Sure her writing isn't the best on the planet but listen to the BEP, most of their stuff is complete nonsense lyrically. Anyway, for the kind of music she is making, it all comes down to a good melody and hook, a good beat, good production, and vocals that aren't harsh to the ear and are consistent. I think she did those things well. Do I think she's the second coming? No, but she got off her butt, whether it's a stripper butt or not, and she managed to put all of this together and not bomb 100%. I think that counts for a lot. I have seen and heard worse things in my life and I think she's interesting. Is she a star? I don't know, but I was entertained. She needs work though. There's no denying that. And yes, I do think parts of the video looked great.

Re: bleahf – Yeah the head spins were a lot. It was like she was trying to copy Willow Smith, and why would a grown woman copy a child's moves lol? Like I said, it's not perfect, she needs work, but it wasn't bad in my opinion.

i wish her music was as interesting as her vibe. the music was well put together, just not interesting enough. Because she was in Grimes video, i do like her a bit for that… I think she's onto something but should reach more creativly in her sound. her look and vibe does not bother me in fact her braids are kinda dope…i never liked rows before on white girls but i am seeing this a lot more in fashion (runways!)

Who the FUCK signed this piece of trash? Shame on you Perez for posting such garbage and comparing this talentless alien to Die Antwood and Iggy Azaelea. Even Kesha would be offended with a comparison, although she is probably more comparable. What's with this girl's vulgar, demeaning look and lyrics? Please girl, get a therapist and respect yourself as a woman. You don't need to look like and act like trash to get a break and if you do, that's just sad. Don't quit your day job if you haven't already been fired for looking like a tramp.

really????? Im so sickened by music today. The girl is talentless and that is why she has to get naked and shake her tits etc… Singers/Rappers with real talent don't need to do that. She was just gross.

Re: LE BAMBI LOU BOP SHE BOP –
I appreciate your comments, they are well written and you seem very smart and articulate. But I too know a little bit about this industry, for I have been working in film & television for more than 13 years. In those years, I worked on music videos for about 4 years. I have seen talentless people. So know a bit about that as well. That's why I agree with heatherlk628 when she says "Singers/Rappers with real talent don't need to get naked". Although, some erotic suggestion can add something to the performance, depending on the content of the song and/or the clip. And for Perez to compare her to Die Antwoord is bullshit!!! Yolandi, their singer, can be explicitly sexual, tough and shoking, she never comes through as vulgar and cheap like this one. Die Antwoord's work is edgy, very artistic and has meaning (anti-apartheid, etc…). Blondie here only promotes shallow, superficial values, with no creative process or humour at all! She projects the idea of someone who wants to live the big life, but has no talent. What's the best way to get there? By showing your tits & ass of course! There is no artistic approach and no thoughts behind the concept of this clip. Sorry to say this, but because of the easy access to computers and sound editing softwares, music these days can be so fucking empty…

Re: Veralynn – Thanks you too. I just think that there is something empowering about a chick that just doesn't give a you know what and is THAT comfortable with her sexual side. In my mind, there is a thin line between porn, trashiness, and simply being racy and what she put on display to me only comes across as racy. I mean, men get away with this kind of behavior all of the time, the whole "I do whatever, bang whatever" attitude, so I appreciate when a girl does it for a change. Now I'm not saying that this is the only way, or the smartest way, women can feel empowered or like "the boss", I'm just stating that there are many ways to do that and this is her. At least she's not letting a man push her to the ground on all fours in a music video so he can pour champagne down her crack. She's doing it because she wants to (unless there is a man with a gun forcing her to do these things behind the camera, you never know).

Re: Veralynn – Continued: As for Perez's statements, well, we all know he likes to exaggerate a hell of a lot very regularly. Maybe because he gets paid to blow things out of proportion or perhaps because he actually likes her? Who knows?! In my opinion he is usually wrong and is wrong about how ready Brooke is, but I totally see that she has the potential. That's why I said that I like the video. However, I totally understand how people could see this and think she needs to go shower and get a real job, but I'm just not one of those people that's all. I think she should keep going and try to grow as an artist.

I feel like I need to go be rebaptized after seeing this filth. Omg. Perez pumped up Katy perry in beginning but a white girl with dreads identity crisis and on a lot of drugs. She did an interview and she couldn't stop rubbing her nose. And her eyes were dilated and watery. Sorry. This is not music at all. Shame on you Perez to even put this filth up. I am going to pray now that children will not grow up to be like that. Wow total shock in a bad way.

Re: Melissa – First of all, they are friends!. Brooke appeared and co-wrote music with Grimes. Second, Brooke couldnt steal anything from Grimes cause all this last one did was take all the hairstyle from cybergoths and alternative girls and dress hipster.

A new Bill Cosby accuser's story of how he allegedly sexually assaulted her after drugging her drink is horrifying.

According to Patricia, -- who decided to keep her last name anonymous -- Bill invited her to a dinner party in 1978 after they met at a conference... a dinner party that ended up just being the two of them:
